The serenity place, psychologists corner

What can you expect if you decide to go to The serenity place drug and alcohol rehab center? If you have never been to a residential treatment facility, you may have some misconceptions about what does and does not take place during rehab.

The First Stop - Detox

At serenity place kahawa,we have rehab facilities have our own in-house detoxification programs, unlike other centers today which require clients to complete Detox prior to entering their facilities. In other words, you may need to get clean and sober before you can even enter rehab.

The trend at the serenity place,Nairobi, is to have you go through the withdrawal process at a facility that specializes in dealing with drug and alcohol withdrawal symptoms. Typically, this done on a short-term, five to seven days, inpatient basis.

Counseling and Group Therapy

During your rehab, you will  receive individual counseling with our trained addictions counselors and you will  participate daily in group therapy meetings with others at the facility.

These sessions are designed to begin to teach you the skills that you will need to live life without drugs and alcohol. You will learn how to recognize situations in which you are most likely to drink or use drugs and how to avoid these circumstances if possible. You will learn new coping skills.

The group sessions are designed to teach you the value of seeking support from others who are going through the same experiences and challenges that you are. In some facilities, these group sessions may be actual 12 step meetings. In other facilities, they may be facilitated by staff members.

What happens when you have to leave the relative safety of the facility and go back into the real world?
